Sorry, this was not the best example as we are using a combination of user id
and pstn number. This does not apply with your numbering plan.

I meant that you don't need to create one entry per user in extensions.conf .

I think it's only readed at startup but you can use the "reload" command when
needed without disturbing current connections/conversations/sessions.

By the way, you have mysql support in voicemail2 when compiled with
USEMYSQLVM .
